pointer, core dump error

Post by Helium5793 »

I am getting this at the end of a short program that just loads some data.
munmap_chunk(): invalid pointer
munmap_chunk(): invalid pointer
Aborted (core dumped)

The program that is doing this is:[

Code: Select all

declare sub write_reagent()
declare sub read_reagent()

DIM SHARED as integer k, reag_count 
DIM SHARED as string reag_name(200), reag_density(200), reag_code(200), reag_unit(200)

DIM SHARED as double reag_year(200), reag_inventory(k), reag_price(200), reag_mw(200) 

SCREEN 0
'COLOR 0, 7

read_reagent()
'write_reagent()




SUB read_reagent()
cls
    OPEN "reagent-new.dat" FOR INPUT AS #3

    INPUT #3, reag_count
    PRINT reag_count
    FOR k = 1 TO reag_count
        INPUT #3, reag_name(k), reag_density(k), reag_code(k), reag_unit(k), reag_year(k), reag_inventory(k), reag_price(k), reag_mw(k)
			PRINT reag_name(k), reag_density(k), reag_code(k), reag_unit(k), reag_year(k), reag_inventory(k), reag_price(k), reag_mw(k)

    NEXT
    CLOSE #3
END SUB

/'SUB write_reagent()

    OPEN "reagent-new-test.dat" FOR OUTPUT AS #3
   WRITE #3, reag_count
   FOR k = 1 TO reag_count
   
   WRITE #3, reag_name(k), reag_density(k), reag_code(k),reag_unit(k), reag_year(k), reag_inventory(k), reag_price(k), reag_mw(k)
   
    PRINT reag_name(k), reag_density(k), reag_code(k), reag_year(k), reag_inventory(k), reag_price(k), reag_mw(k)
    NEXT
    CLOSE #3
END SUB'/
and the data file that it is reading is:

The program compiles ok; when run it prints the data properly, and coughs up the errors.

munmap_chunk(): invalid pointer

@fxm:
Faster than me. I was going to say the same thing, but wanted to test to make sure that was correct.

If you compile with -exx, you often get a more useful error message then 'core dumped' when running the code.

Thank you all for your replies. I appreciate the help. I am new here and am running across a couple more problems . First when I compile successfully I am getting 2 error messages. (I have installed fbc in fedora 31 64bit following the directions on github.com) I am using geany as the ide.

the error messages are: fbc: /lib64/libtinfo.so.5: no version information available (required by fbc)
and fbc: Symbol 'ospeed' has a different size in shared object, consider re-linking

libtinfo.so.5 is on this computer, but it is in /usr/lib64.
No ideas on the second error.

anyway, are these messages important, and how can I fix them?

Also, It appears that filenames are limited to 8 characters.xxx. Is that right? I am loading a simple csv file and it does not load or give an error if the file name is 'element-new.indx' but does load if the filename is element.txt I have looked into the docs but have not found any comments on filenames. Doesn't mean they were not there, but that I couldn't locate them.
I appreciate any help,
Thanks,
John

Check the above topic. There may be some extra .so files you will need. It is also possible that FBC needs a different version of the library than the one you have installed.

Ok, thank you. I will do that. I went back to my original code. I overlooked that 'k' for days, maybe weeks. I really appreciate all of you being an extra set of eyes on that one.

You are not the first with libtinfo.so.5 problems, so e.g.: https://freebasic.net/forum/viewtopic.p ... .5#p264779

I figured out my filename issue. No dashes allowed. I replaced the dashes with underline and the longer filenames are working. It is curious that an illegal filename did cough up an error message though.

I am checking the links you guys are giving me. I did find out ospeed is a variable in ncurses and it is libtinfo is also ncurses. I tried to reinstall ncurses which was a near disaster, but I got it fixed. Didn't change the error messages.

this libtinfo thing gets weirder. I find that fedora has several copies of it around, one in the correct directory for fbc to see it. /lib64 So I guess the question is why isn't it seeing it.

Is your OS 32 or 64 bit (FBC 64 won't work on 32 bit OS)?
Are you using FBC 32 or 64?
The required lib's must have the same bitness, as the compiler used!
